HDF5 doesn't (yet) reclaim space from deleted nodes. Therefore, in principle SimFiles will slowly grow if enough universe definitions / selections are added/replaced. We need to assess how big a problem this is, and what the best solution is for "cleaning" state files that have this potential for bloat.

Was moved to datreant, but this only really affects MDS objects since they add and delete nodes in normal use.
